    Brings back lovely memories of what transpired to be the last holiday my dear wife and I were able to take before her MS got too bad. We stayed at Mortons House Hotel and visited the castle - so interesting. We also took the train to Swanage, with the station staff providing a ramp so that Margie could drive her wheelchair on to the train.

    Thank you for this trip down memory lane , I last visited Corfe Castle over 35 years ago from Australia and it was not quite as busy back then! I love all your videos but especially the Dorset ones; such a beautiful part of England. I really appreciate all the historical facts you incorporate into all your videos also, they are so interesting! Thank you both.

    Great tour of Corfe Castle and the lovely village. It brought back lots of lovely memories from when I visited as a teenager. We stayed in Swanage and took the train too. We were camping in my parent's campervan. It must have been about twenty years ago, so I'll definitely have to organise a trip to return to Swanage and Corfe Castle at some point! Thanks for sharing your time here :)
